Why move from the United States to Ireland?

Ireland continues to be a popular destination for Americans relocating to Ireland for work, lifestyle, family, or investment reasons. Purchasing a home in a new country can feel daunting, particularly where legal, tax, and administrative requirements differ from what you are used to.

As a law firm specialising in Irish property, we provide a seamless service designed to make your move and property purchase in Ireland as straightforward as possible.

Property Conveyancing for US Buyers

We act for American clients buying residential property when relocating to Ireland, whether you are purchasing a family home, a holiday property, or an investment asset. Our conveyancing service includes:

Reviewing contracts and title documentation
Advising on Irish property law and local requirements
Liaising with sellers’ solicitors, estate agents, and lenders
Managing timelines and ensuring a smooth closing process

We take the time to explain each step clearly, using plain English, so you always know where you stand.

PPS Number Applications

To purchase property in Ireland, you will need a Personal Public Service Number (PPSN). This is a requirement even if you are not yet resident in Ireland.

We can assist with:

Preparing and submitting your PPSN application
Advising on the documentation required
Managing the process on your behalf to avoid delays

This removes a common stumbling block for overseas buyers and helps keep your purchase on track.

Trusted Professional Connections

Relocating involves more than just buying property. Over the years, we have built strong relationships with trusted professionals who regularly assist international clients. We can introduce you to:

Mortgage advisors experienced in arranging finance for US buyers
Tax advisors who can advise on Irish tax obligations and cross-border considerations
Surveyors to ensure you are fully informed before you commit to a purchase

These referrals are designed to give you confidence that every aspect of your move is being handled by experienced professionals.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I can't praise Lisa and her staff enough. They were always at the other end of a call or email, no matter the day or time, and maintained such professionalism through the sale and purchase of our homes. Lisa was so efficient throughout and got everything done within such tight deadlines and was always accommodating no matter what situation arose. Can't recommend them or thank them enough for everything they did for us.

We would highly recommend McKenna & Co Solicitors. We recently bought a house and Lisa made the whole experience so easy and stress free. Lisa was always on hand to assist us and got us our keys in no time. Thank you Lisa. Best Wishes Michelle and Joe

Highly recommend Mc Kenna & Co. Great service and attention to detail. If your looking for a solicitor I would highly recommend calling Lisa.
